Fackler Scale of FPS Realism	comment	The Facklernote named after Martin Fackler, U.S. Army/Navy surgeon and forefather of terminal ballistics Scale of First-Person Shooter Realism exists to answer a simple question: to what extent is any given FPS a simulation of real-world combat? The earliest first person shooter games were, like most games of the era, heavily gameplay-oriented arcade-style games. That said, it did not take long before games with a realism focus entered the market: the timeline of game releases running forward from Wolfenstein 3-Dnote the Trope Codifier of FPS games in 1992 reaches both Rainbow Sixnote the first popular tactical simulation shooter and Half-Lifenote a science-fictional shooter with a coherent game world and generally justified gameplay tropes in 1998 and Medal of Honornote the first popular realistic World War II shooter in 1999. Needless to say, the FPS market has seen an overflowing of games all over the scale in the years since. The general trend of examples along the scale should be familiar to FPS gamers: On and near the classic end, games are characterized by fast movement, bunny-hopping, dominance of slow-projectile explosive weapons (rockets), large health gauges (or Regenerating Health) to allow for longer duels, nerfing of the accuracy/firepower of direct-fire automatic weapons for gameplay/fun purposes, and fun tricks like rocket jumping. Vehicles will be easy to pilot, able to dodge/strafe, and able to shoot reasonably well while moving. Hyperspace Arsenals are common. Items are placed on the ground very unnaturally, sometimes even spinning in the air. Artificial Stupidity is common for balance purposes. Bosses will be larger-than-life and over-the-top. At the extreme end of the scale, specialized movement are prevalent such as dashing, sliding, grappling mechanics, and ammo might even be infinite. Approaching the realistic end of the scale, slower, fatigue-restricted movement, use of crouching/prone positions to increase accuracy and reduce visibility, dominance of sniper rifles and assault rifles, the need to use scopes or iron sights for long-range shots, recoil having a detrimental effect on accuracy (and discouraging the use of automatic fire), limited health, and bleeding, leading to very short combat and an emphasis on the use of cover. Vehicles often require multiple crew to operate effectively and will be heavily restricted by terrain. These games often have Mooks, but no Bosses, and when the latter are present, they usually are either as easy to take down as yourself or vehicles that the bog-standard bullet hose can't scratch, forcing the need for anti-vehicle weapons. At extreme end of the scale, mechanics such as location damage are present and even reloading half-empty magazines will make you replace them entirely. Examples should be sorted alphabetically within the following four categories, which range from the least to most realistic: Classic FPS: These games basically run on Rule of Cool and Rule of Fun. Elements of the game might be inspired by reality, but whatever setting details that exist are usually purely aesthetic, justifications for the aforementioned Rule of Cool/Fun gameplay, or simply convenient from a technical standpoint. Semi-Classic FPS: These games take place in settings with internal consistency and plausibility, but not with combat particularly resembling Real Life. Rule of Cool and Rule of Fun aspects are still ubiquitous, although justifications of these tend to be more common. Semi-Simulationist FPS: The preponderance of game elements are either based on real equivalents or intelligently extrapolated from present technology. Some Acceptable Breaks from Reality are included, but enough Real Life factors (e.g. fatigue, limited carrying capacity, steadiness of aim) are present to make the player and NPC behavior resemble what would be seen in a situation populated by mortal human beings. Simulationist FPS: These games not only employ real-life or intelligently speculated weapons, but make a specific point of simulating major elements of gun battles (e.g. firearm mechanics, bullet physics, physiology of gunshot wounds) in detail. There may be Acceptable Breaks from Reality included, but gameplay not only resembles actual combat, but is radically affected by the modeling of reality programmed into the game. Those that strive for simulationist combat are generally known as Tactical Shooters, and even more extreme examples can be considered Simulation Games. Needless to say, a game's rank on the scale is not a measure of its quality. Being more realistic or unrealistic does not, in itself, make a game more or less fun; every game offers its own experience, which may be more or less to the liking of a given gamer.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_1670bd19	comment	S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl and its sequels — Realistic "tactical shooter"-style combat, with lots of firing while crouched, usage of ironsights and leaning around corners. Notably, bullets are affected by gravity and can also ricochet off surfaces. Healing items are in limited supply, but are insta-heal. You can only carry a very limited amount of stuff (50 kgs), and can only equip 2 firearms at a time (a pistol/small submachine gun and a larger weapon). Unless you're wearing military-grade combat armor, expect to die after only a few shots from an assault rifle. Each individual enemy is also just as tough as the player character, so a Mook wearing combat armor can soak more than half a mag of assault rifle fire before going down. However, weight doesn't affect movement until you go over the limit, and medkits heal instantly. (The game would be a LOT harder [hard as it already is] if it wasn't.)

The game is also heavily focused on teamwork and it is not uncommon to see operations pre-planned with marked artillery positions, infantry attack paths and other such stuff. The developers were even contracted in 2006 to produce a PC-based modern-day battlefield simulator for the British Ministry of Defence.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_1a1a594f	comment	Earlier Battlefield games were generally Simulationist. Health did not regenerate and players dropped pretty fast , One Bullet Clips was averted (and ammo was fairly limited), players had to spawn at a command post and hike it out to the front (though some games allowed squad leader spawning), it was incredibly hard to hit anything with automatic fire without taking a proper firing position (though the random bullet spread was taken to the point of absurdity), and vehicles were devastatingly powerful. When the series jumped to console with Battlefield: Bad Company and Battlefield 3 it more or less abandoned the simulationist elements and put its focus on infantry arcade shootbang, which was a fairly controversial change. Some mods such as Project Reality turned the games into straight-up milsims.

Now for the unrealistic elements: Frantic, fast, arcade Quake style gameplay, Bottomless Magazines on plenty of weapons (and strange reloads for the others), Grenade Spam, Road Runner PCs, even the most fragile classes can eat a rocket to the face or a couple dozen assault rifle rounds, bunny hopping, Painfully Slow Projectiles abound, Rocket Jump, Charged Attack sniper rifles, a Medic who can instantly heal you by hitting you with a medkit, and several "futuristic" weapons like rail pistols and EMP grenades.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_2400518e	comment	Rainbow Six Siege pulls the gameplay realism slider back towards the realistic side a bit. Thematic weirdness aside (the game's main game mode is multiplayer and features multinational special forces engaging other multinational special forces), no automatic healing, short time to kill, no respawns, high weapon recoil and high inaccuracy when moving or not using sights, finding cover is emphasized and Concealment Equals Cover is averted, creating a generally realistic gunplay. A big bonus is the addition of a highly detailed and realistic if slightly exaggerated procedural destruction system, allowing surfaces to be destroyed for new viewing angles or even pathways. Tactical gameplay is more or less back (though not in the same way the original games did) with information gathering through drones, cameras, and sounds being heavily emphasized in the metagame. The Operator gadgets are questionable in terms of realism though mostly somewhat grounded in existing concepts. The Tactical Realism mode further drives it towards the realistic side by having a realistic magazine-based reload system (averting One Bullet Clips) and also removing many many HUD elements.

In addition, there are very powerful Elite Class pickups, but are mostly within the range of expectations for a man with special equipment (and are still mostly inspired by real life). Hardcore exists as usual, and some servers also restrict weapons to restore historical accuracy.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_2a893b9b	comment	Counter-Strike: Mostly-realistic damage system (though you can move fine after being blasted in the leg), inaccuracy increases drastically if you don't stop and aim. Limited equipment to a primary weapon and a sidearm, and the interesting mechanic of bullet penetration found rarely in other games at its release. Also, no healing. Nor, in the classic game modes, respawning. Commonly said to be unrealistic since you never take aim with your iron sights, but that's because the game mechanics basically combined the accuracy of aiming down sights in other games with the first-person view of hipfiring, and characters do take aim in third-person. In practice, it's like if the game automatically made you aim down sights when you stop moving. While these previous mechanics by themselves would firmly root Counter Strike on the Simulationist tier, this game is actually in the Semi-Simulationist tier due to a fair amount of "classic" game mechanics subject to Grandfather Clause that have their roots in the old Half-Life engine, which were later ported faithfully to CSGO due to HLCS players having historically been forced to master them and now being unable to forget them. Bunnyhopping (which allows players to move faster while jumping in a diagonal direction) was so popular that players revolted against Valve for eventually patching it out of Counter-Strike: Source and attempting to go even farther in Global Offensive by penalizing excessive jumping in the beta, blaming the push for "realism" on the popularity of Call of Duty. Bullet spray patterns are not random, and players like it that way, because skilled players are supposed to have learned to compensate these patterns in order to lay down a lethally accurate volley of bullets. "Boosting" (where you jump on top of a crouched teammate, then your teammate stands up so you can then jump into an otherwise unreachable place), "stutter-stepping" (quickly alternating between left and right sidestepping to take advantage of a split-second window of accurate firing on every direction change), "movement penalty" (where your running speed depends on which weapon you have equipped — the knife and pistols being the fastest, and heavy machineguns and automatic sniper rifles being the slowest), and a small degree of movement direction control in mid-air, were also kept. Whether it's true or not, Counter-Strike fans definitely consider themselves "old-school" FPS players.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_2e352924	comment	Fistful of Frags has generally realistic gunplay mechanics, but includes a few less realistic mechanics for fun. All the guns are Wild West era firearms — high damage, low accuracy, and low rate of fire. Most guns can kill in two well-placed hits, and headshots usually mean death. Shooting when running completely ruins your accuracy, fanning your revolver and dual wielding weapons also reduce your accuracy, and dual wielding is treated realistically by having delays in between alternated shots. Picking up more weapons also slow you down. For more fun aspects, you can reload infinitely, respawning is quick and painless, thus encouraging a reckless playstyle, and you heal yourself by making yourself drunk on whiskey.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_310b3174	comment	Operation Flashpoint is crushingly realistic. Reloading with a partially used magazine puts that magazine back into your inventory for later use but you can't see which magazine is it until you load it. Wounds are severe, and you're just as mortal as your enemies. Being shot in the head or upper torso almost always means instant death, and being shot in the limbs can render you unable to walk or fire accurately. Combat usually takes place outdoors in wide open areas, and exchanges of fire often take place at ranges of 300 meters or more. Bullets take time to travel and drop over long distances, and even sound takes time to travel. Such is the detail of the game world that you can navigate by the stars at night, and the tides and sunrise/sunset times change depending on the time of year.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_32cfaa50	comment	For a browser F2P FPS with a skill progression system, Contract Wars (as well as its remaster Hired Ops) is a pretty hardcore game. Move speed is limited, equipment is limited, weapons are inaccurate when moving, not aiming down sights reduces accuracy, recoil is generally strong, everybody goes down in just a few hits, sniper scopes are 3D scopes (meaning the view around the scope is not zoomed in), and even the effect of skills are minimal, with the health regen being surprisingly slow and the armor being generally weak against most firearms in the game. Gameplay can be described as being more "walk-and-gun" than "run-and-gun". Hardcore mode pushes the realism even further, with changes including averting One Bullet Clips, averting Critical Existence Failure, averting Friendly Fireproof, and trimming the skill tree down to a limited list of things that a PMC is reasonably expected to have in the field. The related game Escape from Tarkov (made by a heavily related but separate studio, taking place in the same universe) is ludicrously detailed in realism. The huge (and incomplete) list of realistic mechanics include common sights like no crosshairs, realistic inaccuracy and recoil, realistic bullet damage, magazine-based reloading, minimalist HUD, bullet penetration, realistic carrying (2 long guns and a handgun on your body, the rest goes in your backpack), massive punishment to deaths to discourage recklessness; some rarer sights like bodypart damaging, bullet ricochet, 3D weapon presence (your weapon is not locked to the center of your screen, you'll lower it when standing up against a wall, your sights can misalign if you move when aiming, and telescopic sights do not zoom in your entire view), fatigue from running and carrying, the grenade having a massive kill radius due to the shrapnel; and there are just some obscure mechanics that exist for no reason other than more realism, like requirement for gun maintenance (your gun can jam if you don't), having to put magazines in your rig before you reload, detailing weapon modification to such an extent you can strip your gun down to just a (non-functional) receiver, and making sure that there's a first-person player animation for everything you do (including changing your firing mode). The game also includes a whole bunch of realistic maneuvers like making tactical reloads separate from speed reloads and allowing you to lean and fine-tune that lean with scrolling. In short, it is created to be as authentic, hardcore, and detailed as possible.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_331e009	comment	Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! take it even further than the first game. Guns that explode when you reload, guns that become more accurate as you shoot them, guns that shoot rockets, guns that shoot exploding gyrojet rounds...and that's just among the standard weapon types. There's also a gun that shoots swords that explode into other, also-exploding swords, guns with near-infinite ammo capacity, guns with infinite ammo capacity, guns that shoot balls of acid or ricocheting lightning bolts, grenades that spit acid seeking grenades, grenades that shoot homing vampire missiles that heal the player, MIRV grenades that explode into other, smaller grenades, grenades that bounce around like psychotic rubber balls (and one legendary variant that spits out MIRV grenades every time it bounces). And this is leaving out the characters, which include a commando who can deploy a massive machinegun turret that shoots missiles and may or may not create a miniature nuclear explosion when it deploys, a mad scientist who creates a giant killer flying deathbot, a berserker who can get so angry that he can rage ammo into his guns and keep his guns from needing to use ammo, a psycho who gets stronger when he's on fire and can make his enemies explode every time he kills them, a cyborg mercenary who keeps grafting every single piece of hardware that can make him stronger, a sadomasochistic Wild West sheriff who just absolutely loves violence, and a funny little robot upgraded with the ability to wield guns and a special skill that mimics the skills of all the previous characters.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_33dd1d8f	comment	Half-Life: Enemy squad tactics ranging from hurling grenades to flush you out to sending in troops one at a time to see if you're dead, taking cover, and such. Taking cover was also encouraged when fighting human enemies and there are no Bottomless Magazines on real world guns. Health for enemies is reasonably realistic, though everything working on simple hit points isn't. It was one of the first games to diegetically justify its settings, e.g. you find weapons in armories or on enemy bodies instead of floating in the air, and health packs are future-tech vials of fluid instead of just floating hearts. On the other hand, your armor can take several dozen bullets, you never sustain lasting damage after using health packs, you can carry a small arsenal of weapons and ammo, you can run at 20 miles per hour forever while wearing a metal suit and carrying 15 weapons, some guns have unrealistically large magazine sizes (the submachine gun can hold 50 rounds), the grenade launcher under the submachine gun never needs to be reloaded, and most of the cleverer things your enemies do are faked with scripting.Note that in the Half-life world, the HEV suit has a "Weapons combat suite" as part of the suit, that includes "Defensive weapon selection systems" and "Munition level monitoring." So in terms of One Bullet Clips, it could be very well possible the suit itself manages the ammo and how it's stored for Gordon. A spinoff of the famous SMOD of the sequel ranks more realistic on the scale, though still using a Call of Duty-style healing system, or the game's regular med-kits. Newer versions are to include a "bandage" system that forces players to stop and heal.

There is a very realistic physics engine, guns are slightly more accurate across the board, your enemies will do those intelligent things even without scripting, magazines are smaller forcing you to reload more often, cover is more encouraged, there are a few vehicles you can drive, you now job at 8 mph by default and can only sprint 15 mph in bursts, and many enemies are more fragile (those who aren't are handwaved as being cyborgs). The handgun also averts Bang, Bang, BANG. One Bullet Clips, Critical Existence Failure, you being Made of Iron, easy healing, lack of iron sights, your Hyperspace Arsenal, and unrealistically short weapon ranges (rather similar to Halo or Fallout) are still there, however.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_3f2718c2	comment	Brothers in Arms: Places a strong emphasis not only on taking cover, but also on real infantry tactics like suppression fire and flanking maneuvers (which are pretty much essential to win, and the AI uses them as well). Also, weapons are extremely inaccurate without using the iron-sights (and pretty inaccurate with them too). No regeneration or healing, although you can still take a few bullets without dying or feeling any impact on gameplay. Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway has a unique health system that functions much like Call of Duty's, except instead of taking hits, it is more like luck. The longer you lean out of cover or are exposed while getting shot at, the more your screen turns red. Eventually, a single bullet finds its mark and you die/are severely wounded and have to go back to the last checkpoint. It's a system that encourages you to hug cover and not conserve ammo: on the higher difficulties, you won't have a chance to aim much, so snap shots are your friend.

No falling damage, although this is handwaved as the player being a cyborg. The player's weapon must be aimed up or down to hit things above or below them.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_4e153baf	comment	Red Orchestra: A very harsh portrayal of WWII combat. There are no crosshairs and, when fired from the hip, weapons are not centered to the screen, but wander back and forth as you move. There is no ammo counter, few HUD elements in general, and no healing at all. All weapons have significant recoil that must be carefully controlled when firing rapidly. Weapons can be rested against surfaces to steady them, and weapons with bipods (such as machine guns and anti-tank rifles) can be set up on any suitable surface. Ballistics are fairly realistically simulated with travel time and bullet drop, though no penetration (Fixed in the sequel). Machineguns overheat if fired in long bursts, even to the point of warping and ruining the barrel. Sniper scopes only magnify the things you see in them instead of zooming the whole screen in. Damage modeling is severe and universal and one hit kills are common, especially if a person is shot in the head or torso. Wounds bleed, shrapnel takes arms and legs off, and direct hits from artillery shells can turn men into a red cloud. Combat is highly tactical, and which weapon you're given depends on your class. Since all classes except "Rifleman" are limited in number, most soldiers end up with a bolt-action rifle or, if they're lucky, a semi-automatic rifle or submachine gun. Guns like sniper rifles and machineguns are limited in number and must be used wisely.The game also approaches simulation level in its portrayal of tanks: Crew of One is averted, a tank must have at least a driver and a commander/gunner to be used efficiently. It's almost impossible for the gunner to aim the cannon while the tank is moving, so voice communication between gunner and driver is a must. There is no third person view, so the tank crew can only see through small view ports. To get a better view, they have to open the hatch and risk being shot in the process. Tank armor varies in thickness depending on the model and part of the vehicle, with rear armor being the weakest. Tanks can be disabled by penetrating the engine compartment or disabling the treads, or completely destroyed by aiming for the ammunition storage compartment. Shells that impact tank armor at a sharp angle will deflect off harmlessly.

Player character is only slightly more durable than a run-of-the-mill enemy, encouraging the use of stealth approaches and cover, and health regeneration is very limited outside of healing items. Plus, you lose any weapons and upgrades you have upon death unless you "purchase" them. However, you have access to fantastical powers that let you double jump, teleport, kill multiple enemies with one shot, and more.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_56bddefe	comment	Combat Arms: Really up and down about this. Health does not regenerate, and a small amount of bullets are generally necessary to kill someone, causing people who stand still to get in a lot of trouble. However, running around and out-shooting your enemies usually works. One Bullet Clips are in full effect, though Hyperspace Arsenal is effectively averted by only allowing a main weapon, a sidearm, a melee weapon and extra two extra things for your backpack at most — you aren't even allowed to get more ammo for any gun, all weapons picked up has the exact same ammo as it did when its holder was killed. Armour in the game also is mostly nullified by melee attacks and explosions, aside from one exception — usually like in Real Life. Headshots kill in one hit unless you are wearing a helmet, which only gives you a chance of not being killed in one hit. Moving hurts your accuracy, there is recoil which is exceptionally noticeable with automatic fire, and using a scope is necessary for farther shots — but you are unable to utilize your gun's iron sights if you lack a scope. In execution, the game is generally more run-and-gun on smaller maps with respawning available, and more tactical without said respawning or larger maps. This all goes out the window when Specialists show up with Miniguns, Medkits that heal you by walking near them, not to mention the characters themselves being things you'd expect from GI joe.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_58a0656b	comment	The sequel, PAYDAY 2, leans more toward Semi-Classic while remaining somewhat realistic like its predecessor. Players can only carry two firearms and one melee weapon, but a combination of a minigun and rocket launcher is no more encumbering than that of an assault rifle and pistol. Various skills allow the player to do decidedly less realistic actions, such as surviving fatal shots for six extra seconds and gaining Bottomless Magazines for the duration, or healing incapacitated teammates with an inspiring shout. Health is static by default, but some skills and perk decks allow passive healing over time, either through waiting or by dealing damage to enemies. Loot is now carried in duffel bags, and different types of loot have different weights, which affects player movement speed and throw distance. During stealth, players can eliminate guards, but have to spend time fooling the pager operator to prevent the alarm from being raised afterward, and the body must usually be moved to prevent other guards from noticing it. The pager operator will also get suspicious after too many guards are eliminated, and some maps have guard reinforcements arrive to check the situation.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_59da62aa	comment	Fallout: New Vegas: Similar to Fallout 3, with a few key differences. First of all, the game includes iron sights, weapon mods, much more limited bullet spread, (mostly) aversions of Arbitrary Gun Power, a far improved armor system (dependent on "damage threshold"), and other small changes that make the game slightly more realistic. Second, New Vegas has an optional "Hardcore" mode (separate from the standard difficulty settings) which drastically increases the game's realism—ammo has weight, healing happens over time instead of instantly, and it's possible to die of fatigue, starvation, or dehydration if you don't carefully monitor your food stocks (though how healthy that food is doesn't matter, you can live on Twinkies and cola) and sleeping schedule. Medkits don't heal all damage; crippled limbs require you to seek out a doctor. Unofficial mods tend to make it harder, such as requiring utensils, or needing a balanced breakfast; Imp's More Complex Needs is a mod that lives up to its name by tracking not only calories (the analogue to the unmodded game's generic "Hunger" stat), but also protein and vitamin/mineral content and forces the player to avoid malnutrition penalties. It also makes it possible to go into a "food coma" from too much eating, makes eating take time and penalizes various skills and stats until it's done to prevent players from trying to scarf down an entire steak during a firefight, and makes it possible to suffer from water poisoning from drinking too fast. It also adds circadian rhythm and forces players to follow their sleep schedule or gradually change it over many days to something else, lest they suffer (more) penalties.Both hardcore and regular difficulties in the game also include different ammunition types for weapons, like hollow points (which cause more damage but have more trouble penetrating armor due to the bullet squashing on impact) and armor piercing (which penetrates armor very easily but causes less raw damage because of the hard bullet not deforming and making a relatively small hole). The .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum guns can also load .38 Special and .44 Special rounds (like the real life weapons), which deal less damage but cause less wear on the gun. Shotguns can load beanbag rounds that do fatigue damage, allowing you to stun and knock out enemies to avoid killing them or make them easier to Coup de GrÃ¢ce. Ammo selection is often the most important factor in getting the most out of a gun, and the game even includes reloading benches (something almost unheard of in any video game) where you can break down unused cartridges for powder (divided between pistol/shotgun and rifle, representing faster and slower burning powders), primers (different kinds for different cartridges, with small and large varieties for both pistols and rifles like in real life), and lead and reload spent casings with your preferred load for different combat. Game mods introduce even more realism and options, like various handloading recipes, less-lethal ammo for non-shotguns like plastic bullets, and the ability to break down spent casings into plain brass and reform them into new sizes (something certainly possible in real life) and even rechamber guns into different calibers.

With the addition of the "Shooter" modifiers in update 1.2, this first-person Beat 'em Up turns into what's essentially a Counter-Strike clone with over the top gore. Guns are properly lethal, so two or three bullets is more than sufficient to drop a typical foe, and only a few more will do the same to the player. Furthermore, outside of player-made levels there is no way to heal, guns cannot be reloaded, and bullets are individually modeled projectiles (though noticeably slower than in most shooters). That said, Critical Existence Failure is in full effect (enemies will fight to the very end even while missing limbs and huge chunks of flesh) and the player retains their agility and abilities from the base game, being able to sprint, jump and shoot simultaneously with no penalty to accuracy while also being able to punt enemies across the room with a kick worthy of Duke Nukem. The player also has powers that, lets them blow enemies away with a shockwave, obliterate them with a single punch, or call down a Kill Sat, among other things.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_62624eee	comment	Serious Sam series: Serious Sam: The First Encounter and Serious Sam II: Practically no reloading (and only for the basic revolvers — which you should not be using past the first levels — and the double shotgun), thousands of incoming monsters with simple AI and very few enemies with hitscan weapons, Hyperspace Arsenal with gatling lasers, very limited falling damage, cannonballism, Time Travel, and ass-whupping. Movement speed, however, is slightly slower than majority of classic first-person shooters with no intended fast movement techniques.One of the most popular mods in the series called Parse Error/Serious Insamnity shifts the game further to classic style to the extreme degree. The player moves at the speed of a car, the amount of enemies is tenfolded and weapons are incredibly overpowered to match the amount of enemies. In addition in Serious Sam II variation, most of the weapons are akimbos, including the cannon. Serious Sam 3: BFE: Slightly more down the scale compared to its predecessors with sprinting (although infinite), lower jump height, smarter enemies, and some weapons requiring reloading with a few of them (the pistol, assault rifle, grenade launcher, and sniper rifle) having usable sights or scopes. Sam must actually use the sights, as opposed to having 100% accurate hip firing like the previous games, but when he does use them his accuracy is flawless out to beyond a kilometer. Not by much down the scale due to sheer number of enemies and retaining other gameplay elements like carrying twenty weapons at once to kill twenty thousand enemies per encounter.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_6819fb9f	comment	Rainbow Six: The early entries forced you to make tactical decisions and aim carefully — both you and the terrorists were easily killed, even if you were wearing heavy armor, which was useless against the common AK-47. You had to spend quite a bit of time planning which floors to breach and who to kill in the pre-planning stage, and you had to make it quick, since most missions had hostages in them. Later entries were less realistic, culminating in Vegas, which has a CoD-style healing system and arcade-y single player, with no pre-planning [except for gear loadout]. Rainbow Six Siege pulls the gameplay realism slider back towards the realistic side a bit. Thematic weirdness aside (the game's main game mode is multiplayer and features multinational special forces engaging other multinational special forces), no automatic healing, short time to kill, no respawns, high weapon recoil and high inaccuracy when moving or not using sights, finding cover is emphasized and Concealment Equals Cover is averted, creating a generally realistic gunplay. A big bonus is the addition of a highly detailed and realistic if slightly exaggerated procedural destruction system, allowing surfaces to be destroyed for new viewing angles or even pathways. Tactical gameplay is more or less back (though not in the same way the original games did) with information gathering through drones, cameras, and sounds being heavily emphasized in the metagame. The Operator gadgets are questionable in terms of realism though mostly somewhat grounded in existing concepts. The Tactical Realism mode further drives it towards the realistic side by having a realistic magazine-based reload system (averting One Bullet Clips) and also removing many many HUD elements.

Gimmicky weapons exist (gatling lasers, portable nuke launchers, etc.), but focus is very much on standard firearms. Weapons degrade and jam, but can be repaired by scavenging parts from similar weapons, even if they themselves are nearly unusable. Damage model distinguishes individual body parts, with appropriate effects depending on the part that is affected, though it still takes a lot of firepower to kill the player and it is possible to spam medkits in combat. Player can use awareness-increasing drugs, which help in combat, but they typically have withdrawal effects.

Earlier versions also had the player take damage from the ricochet if they shot a firearm point blank at a wall. Of course, the game also got less realistic in a certain other department.

On the other hand, you had a regenerating energy shield that could take varying amounts of damage according to difficulty. The first game had a health bar under that shield, while subsequent games removed it entirely (though it makes a return in Gaiden Games which are set before the original or have protagonists who are not the kind of Powered Armor-wearing cyborg the Master Chief is). Also, moving has no effect on accuracy, and shootouts are often much more "run-and-gun" than "peek-and-lean" (especially after Halo 5: Guardians added a bunch of fancy movement abilities), although the regenerating health mechanic does encourage hiding behind cover when injured. Halo: Reach did add reticle bloom, which decreases the accuracy of a weapon if it's being fired too rapidly, but this was pared down in later games. That said, Halo 3: ODST did lean a little more towards realism, with health and lowered accuracy from motion.

On the other hand, the early-mid 20th century era weaponry is somewhat restrained (i.e. the revolver and shotgun have very limited ammo capacity, while the tommy gun is quite inaccurate at range), character movement is relatively slow, and the game does encourage tactical use of your Plasmid powers in combination with your weapons to overcome the more challenging obstacles (the Big Daddies in particular). BioShock Infinite is slightly more realistic, limiting you to two weapons at at time, buffing the opposition from mindless gun-toting drug-zombies to trained soldiers with mostly mundane gear, and adding a Quick Melee Sky-Hook and Regenerating Shields, Static Health.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_7988cb68	comment	Mass Effect: Past the first game, very similar to Gears of War. While the series is set 180 years in the future, your basic weapons (despite being highly advanced and powerful coilguns) basically behave like Standard FPS Guns from battle rifles to light machine guns to disposable rocket launchers. Accuracy is reasonable (except for most shotguns), aiming down the sights is essential, the cover system is well-constructed and vital to survival,note In addition to being able to hide behind objects as normal, the game also allows you to blindfire, aim from cover by popping in and out, lean, vault over obstacles, and quickly move between cover nodes by sprinting or rolling. In the third game, thin cover can also be pierced by bullets, and specialized armor-piercing rounds can basically ignore all cover. semi-plausible future-tech justifies health kits, weapons are highly moddable, and all but one of the games uses Regenerating Shield, Static Health for both the player and the NPCs. There is a Character Level mechanic, but for the most part, either the boosts you get are reasonable for a character simply getting more skilled or there is a stat increase that is justified in Flavor Text.note E.g., increasing Tali's passive skill makes her weapon and tech attack damage increase, which is explained as her using her technical expertise to modify her coilguns and gear to get better performance out of them. Increasing Shepard's melee damage or health is explained as installing further cybernetic implants. Enemies take a lot of bullets to put down even from said powerful coilguns,note For example, the standard assault rifles in Mass Effect 3 like the Avenger and Phaeston deal 40-50 base damage per shot (battle rifles and heavy pistols around twice as much), while Cerberus Assault Troopers have 750 health on normal difficulty. but all are visibly heavily armored and shielded in hardened ceramic Powered Armor, and they'll still go down relatively quickly to automatic fire or high-powered firearms such as sniper rifles. Enemies are quite intelligent and most encounters come down to dueling smart (though seemingly unending) squads who use real-world small unit tactics, alongside your own teammates. The unrealistic aspects mostly come in the form of all the absurd futuristic gear everyone has access to, the mechanics of which are kept mostly internally consistent but make no physical sense. This ranges from relatively mundane (e.g. Deflector Shields, strength-enhancing cybernetics) to ridiculous (biotic powers that grant telekinesis, super speed, guided exploding energy balls, shockwaves, the ability to spawn a miniature black hole, etc.). The "tech attacks", for instance, include the typical fantasy Fire, Ice, Lightning wizard powers transplanted into a sci-fi universe and given a handwave for how they work (e.g. "powerful plasma incendiary rounds" or "masses of super-cooled subatomic particles"). As a result, with certain playstyles, gameplay can border on "Classic" pretty fast. Additionally, everyone in The 'Verse is carrying an "omni-tool" in their arm that, with the correct add-ons installed, basically acts as a magic wand. With a built-in nano-fabricator there is seemingly no limit to what it can do: it can create practically anything on the spot from plasma flamethrowers to combat drones to Hard Light weapons and tools. Said nano-fabricators are also in all of the guns, meaning you can have a shotgun that fires an unending supply of incendiary rockets out if its second barrel if you want. This is also why a lot of the weapons (especially rocket and grenade launchers) are visibly too small for their ammo capacities.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_7f9dbbcb	comment	Far Cry: Player can only carry a limited amount of weapons, but no restrictions on which ones, so this can include machine guns, rocket launchers and high-caliber sniper rifles all at the same time. Heavier weapons do, however, slow movement and increase your stamina consumption when running, but only when actually equipped and held - carrying all three of the above heavy weapons at the same time won't encumber you in the least if you have a machete in your hand. Movement is relatively slow, and movement significantly reduces firing accuracy, encouraging you to fire while crouching or leaning behind cover. Additionally, health and armor pickups are relatively uncommon, and on higher difficulty settings you can only survive a few shots. Combat against human enemies is fairly realistic, with stealth often coming into play, but when you face off against mutants the gameplay becomes much more like a classic shooter. For later games in the series, 2 is slightly more realistic in a few ways (see below), while 3 and beyond are slightly less realistic due to giving the player near-superhuman abilities thanks to the RPG Elements.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_7f9dbbcc	comment	Far Cry 2: A generally strong attempt at portraying a harsh and realistic war, though some elements may feel iffy. Player can carry only four weapons at a time (of those, two are a knife and a pistol, leaving only enough room for 2 rifle-sized or larger weapons). Player must aim with iron sights as there is no on-screen crosshair by default. Your map is a physical item that you have to take out and read to know where you are. Player must use cover effectively to survive. Player must stop and heal serious wounds to avoid bleeding to death (though most of it is Worst Aid, and you can do it endlessly, but at least it tried to depict emergency procedures). Player has freaking malaria. The game also notably has a weapon degradation system, where guns picked up off the ground and in a worse shape can jam, misfire or even completely fail.On the other hand, syringes (and bottled water) somehow restore health even though most of the damage you take is from bullets, and you can still take a lot of them even without using syringes, and you also have health regeneration for minor injuries. Even with the inventory limit, realism is still iffy. One can conceivably cart around an M79 with 5 grenades, a SAW with 500 rounds, and a sniper rifle with 50 rounds. Plus 5 hand grenades and 5 molotov cocktails. Also, this is the game where almost any damage to a vehicle (collision, fall off a cliff, riddled with bullets, set on fire) can be repaired by opening the hood and tightening the radiator cap, though whether or not this makes the game more or less realistic is a bit of a YMMV. The weapons also break down unrealistically fast: for example, the USAS-12 goes from brand new to literally falling apart after firing a few magazines. Apparently the trained and experienced mercenary protagonist does not know how to maintain any of his guns.

Player can at one point dual-wield a machine gun and a grenade launcher. Player can also drive and fire a Russian tank single-handedly (though this is handwaved in Nintendo Power by mentioning that Bond spent a week at Heavy Armor Training Camp) and using it as a cheat in other levels makes it mansized. However, there is no way to restore health. Putting on suits of body armor will absorb damage until it deteriorates, but that's it.

A hard limit on the number of weapons/items/grenades you can equip, so taking a backup SMG might mean missing out on body armor. Injuries may cause you to bleed, which will kill you if you don't take a few seconds to bandage yourself. Damage to your legs will cut your movespeed by a massive amount until treated and any damage will cripple your stamina bar. However allies with a Medkit item can heal you up to 90% health and bandages fix broken legs. Last but not least... wall-hopping, powersliding around corners and even Goomba Stomp-ing enemies are all central elements of gameplay.

The player is as fragile as their humanoid opponents, resulting in extremely quick, intense firefights that are often decided in less than five shots. Heavy armor barely helps your survivability, and healing is limited to healing items scattered sparingly around the maps. Weapons are Standard FPS Guns largely and behave more-or-less realistically, featuring an interactive reload mechanic. However, the game takes place in a horrifically dystopian Bio Punk world where the player can whip around the map with an intestine grappling hook and eat disembodied organs to regain health. Also, the game looks like an MS Paint neon prolapse.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_9114c8e5	comment	Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth is surprisingly realistic for a game about fishmen breeding with humans and sea gods. Humans are fairly fragile, and the ones that aren't are handwaved as being half human hybrids. A few bullets will take out any enemy, and the player character and the enemies weren't that far away in health. If anything, they had more health than the player usually. It's also got one of the most realistic body damage systems in video games. When hit, different things happen depending on what body part was hit. Getting shot in the leg causes you to move slower and drag your leg (complete with sound effects), and getting shot in the chests causes your gun to wobble around and your vision to blur, making it impossible to aim. The only way to heal your wounds is to apply bandages, sultures, and splints, (different medical supplies are needed for different wounds) which you must apply in real time, making doing this in the middle of a firefight next to impossible. However, you must do it really fast, because if you leave major wounds untreated, you'll actually bleed to death, where as minor wounds will heal by themselves. Also, there was no Hud at all. Meaning there was no health bar, no ammo indicator, and no crosshair. The only way to tell if you are dying is how much blood was on your screen, how grey your screen was, and how hard you were breathing in game. To keep count of your ammo, you have to mentally keep track of how many bullets you fired, and to aim, you have to aim down the actual iron sights on the guns. The only real unrealistic parts were One Bullet Clips, the ability to carry every weapon in the game simultaneously, the fact that applying a bandage will make any wound good as new, and the presence of fantastical monsters. On top of that, unlike a vast majority of FPS games, a weapon would not automatically plant a bullet at the center of the screen. Rather, it would depend on where the weapon's barrel was actually pointing, meaning that weapon sway is not merely for show. This not only applies for you, but for any mook with a gun as well.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_a598a226	comment	No More Room In Hell attempts to depict a realistic zombie survival situation. The HUD is completely absent most of the time — no crosshairs, the ammunition count only appears when you hold the reload key to check the magazine, and you can only tell your health from the visual effects. Shooting without stopping and aiming is a bad idea due to the scarcity of ammunition and the low hipfire accuracy worsened by moving. No shooting when sprinting. Aiming for the head is a requirement since zombies can shrug off a ton of damage to their body due to being undead. Inventory is restricted by weapon weight (one shotgun takes up around a third of it), and the more you carry, the less stamina you have for sprinting and melee. Ammunition is separate for guns with different calibers, and also take up weight in your inventory. Getting attacked by a zombie can cause damage, bleeding and/or infection. Health is regained through first aid kits (going through a lengthy animated self-treatment process), bleeding is treated with bandages (no healing though), and infection is temporarily halted with antiviral medicine. You die quick if even just one zombie gets a bit too close. In addition, using a weapon with a scope doesn't zoom in the whole screen, flashlights can only be used alongside handguns since you have to carry them with one hand, and infected survivors will always reanimate after death unless they commit suicide with a headshot.

Once again, realistic elements first: You can only carry three weapons at once (a primary, a sidearm, and a melee weapon), you have to reload most of your sidearms and some primary weapons (like the pistol, grenade launcher, shotgun, rocket launcher, and double barreled shotgun called the Force-A-Nature), the physics engine causes the grenade launchers projectiles to bounce realistically, and cause most guns have reasonable ranges (the shotgun and pistol both are capable medium range weapons), and teamwork is much more encouraged than its predecessor. As for the unrealistic elements: Critical Existence Failure, Made of Iron characters, the cartoonish art style, Bottomless Magazines for a few weapons like the flamethrower and minigun, man portable miniguns, Rocket Jump, sodas that if drank make you temporarily invincible, and much, much more.Note that cartoony graphics isn't the only thing unrealistic about the visuals, looking at the melee weapons we have a postal box, trophy, and a golf club as just a few of the silly weapons. Also note the fact that there is a shield made out of wood which increases fire resistance. Think about that for a second. If it does damage, you can kill somebody with it.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_c4a1d59e	comment	Call of Duty / Modern Warfare: Cover emphasized. Shooting is inaccurate unless you use iron-sights — though when you do use them, accuracy is practically what you'd expect of lasers, allowing you to kill snipers that are less skilled. Shotguns are very short-ranged. However, uses a health system that, depending on your difficulty, takes anywhere from a full magazine to one or two bullets to deplete your health, but regeneration makes you fine and dandy shortly afterward. The accuracy for iron sights is somewhat Truth in Television, though gaming logic has turned it into a case of Reality Is Unrealistic. In most modern shooters, 500 yards is sniper territory, but in real life, US Marines are required to qualify at that distance using the iron sights on their M16 assault rifles during basic training. A competent rifleman can easily hit targets at 200-300 yards with iron sights, and 500 yards isn't a stretch either if the target is stationary. Call of Duty is all over the scale due to its multiple game modes. While Hardcore multiplayer matches and singleplayer on harder difficulties can be pretty realistic (you can die by taking just 2-3 hits), standard multiplayer can get VERY ridiculous for Rule of Fun. The Perks system is what really makes things unrealistic, as it can let players reload faster than should be humanly possible, sprint indefinitely, and take no damage from falling. Also interesting to note is that, in all game modes, Concealment Equals Cover is averted, thanks to wide-open maps (or, in small maps, very little cover even in rooms - and what cover there is can easily be rushed or penetrated with the right perk or attachment) and the ability for heavier weapons to punch through light walls and the like.Vanilla mode only requires 3 bullets to kill a person with 100 health (hardcore only gives people 30), providing you're within range of damage drop-off of the weapon and you're hitting the chest or head (which generally apply a respective 1.1x or 1.5x damage modifier, depending on the weapon). Seeing as most rifles do 40-30 or 30-20 damage before the use of perks like "Stopping Power", which also adds a 1.4x modifier, it doesn't take a lot to kill somebody. Unfortunately, poor hit detection and netcode in CoD games, combined with the average person's inability to aim properly leads to a significantly higher amount of bullets used to kill a person. Multiplayer can sometimes forget that this is a game about highly trained special forces. Even the most rudimentary of squad tactics and attempt to emulate the basics of real combat usually goes out the window in favor of running around like a blue-arsed fly due to random spawning (it was made to be semi-random based on the proximity against a group of opposing enemies, unlike most other team-based FPS supposedly to deter spawn campers but as the series goes on it seems to be random) and the series' collection of usually small multiplayer maps that seems to get smaller as the series goes on. The series seems geared towards such an approach however, with most modes giving you lightning-fast respawn times without any penalties and most maps being tight and personal, and those ranked high on the leaderboards generally use such tactics. Some later games, like Advanced Warfare and Black Ops III, slide even further towards the classic end with additions like jump-jets, sliding, and wall-running, all while still able to aim and fire your weapons accurately.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_c72021c5	comment	Deus Ex: Player has a limited amount of space to carry all items, including weapons (which are the bulkiest items by far — the inventory system is a forerunner to the briefcase in Resident Evil 4). Weapons are fairly inaccurate unless the player stands still, crouches, or spends points on weapons training. Player must pick up weapons and ammo deliberately by looking at them and clicking, as opposed to simply running over weapons or ammo. All characters take separate damage to individual parts of the body — taking excessive leg damage will slow you to a crawl, taking excessive arm damage will mess up your aim, and taking excessive chest or head damage is fatal. However, health is easily restored by medkits or medical bots, including broken limbs. Also, once you develop your nano-augmented powers sufficiently, you can run as fast as a speeding car and regenerating bullet wounds almost instantly. The prequel gets points for being one of the only video games period to treat body armor semi-realistically. If you shoot an enemy wearing hard ceramic plates in the torso, pistol rounds and shotgun pellets will bounce off entirely and assault rifle rounds will require a few closely-spaced shots to chew through it. Practically any other game would've at least made the shotgun a short range one hit kill.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_c8e4778b	comment	The related game Escape from Tarkov (made by a heavily related but separate studio, taking place in the same universe) is ludicrously detailed in realism. The huge (and incomplete) list of realistic mechanics include common sights like no crosshairs, realistic inaccuracy and recoil, realistic bullet damage, magazine-based reloading, minimalist HUD, bullet penetration, realistic carrying (2 long guns and a handgun on your body, the rest goes in your backpack), massive punishment to deaths to discourage recklessness; some rarer sights like bodypart damaging, bullet ricochet, 3D weapon presence (your weapon is not locked to the center of your screen, you'll lower it when standing up against a wall, your sights can misalign if you move when aiming, and telescopic sights do not zoom in your entire view), fatigue from running and carrying, the grenade having a massive kill radius due to the shrapnel; and there are just some obscure mechanics that exist for no reason other than more realism, like requirement for gun maintenance (your gun can jam if you don't), having to put magazines in your rig before you reload, detailing weapon modification to such an extent you can strip your gun down to just a (non-functional) receiver, and making sure that there's a first-person player animation for everything you do (including changing your firing mode). The game also includes a whole bunch of realistic maneuvers like making tactical reloads separate from speed reloads and allowing you to lean and fine-tune that lean with scrolling. In short, it is created to be as authentic, hardcore, and detailed as possible.

Unlike its predecessor, it omits the Burn Card system. However, the game has many, MANY movement options, with maps purpose-designed to allow you to take advantage of this. Firefights are frantic, highly fast-paced affairs where the victor is usually determined by who is able to outmaneuver the other. Ammo capacity is limited in singleplayer; however, in multiplayer, reloads are unlimited. This is on top of the various pilot abilities and power-ups, as well as the presence of Titans to ride around in.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_d373f235	comment	Alliance of Valiant Arms: A game developed by a Korean company named Red Duck, it is essentially Counter-Strike with improvements such as better graphics (via Unreal Engine), 3 classes, passive skills (only helps a little), and 7+ modes. Recoil now shakes the screen up and down and you can now control the recoil better. Aiming down sights is useless on most assault rifles, with 3-4 exceptions (AK107, AK200, MG4KE, etc.), because of the mysteriously slowed rate of fire and increased recoil. The Korean version recently released many overpowered guns that operate like those from Call of Duty, making realism semi-dependent on the weapon you are using. As of now, the M1 Garand has been released on the Korean version. For the first time, iron sights are available on a weapon. So logically, if everyone uses M1 Garand, then it'd be further down the list in terms of realism. On the other hand, if everyone uses the SA-58 Para or any other hipfire-only gun, then it'd be further up. As a result, most matches tend to be a hodgepodge of both Counter-Strike and Call of Duty: two completely different gameplay mechanics rolled into one. On top of that, some new guns have the options to select firing modes in-game while others' firing modes have to be selected in the inventory by adding/removing mods. Which gun has what feature depends entirely on its release date. With other WWII guns incorporated in the game since its release including PPSh and STG44, it's truly a monstrous conglomerate that has confused and is still confusing new players and veterans alike with each update including zombie modes, robot modes, and a gameshow mode where you score points in minigames against the opposing team.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_d5ac3d6a	comment	SWAT 4: Being a slower-paced and atmospheric tactical shooter, there is no jumping at all, you can either creep, walk at a standard pace or run very slowly. You command a five-man team from first person (plus two sniper teams) and have a simple yet intuitive command bar to give them orders. No iron sights, but there is a zoom function and your accuracy goes to shit if you run and improves if you stop and crouch; similar to Counter-Strike, it's mechanically as if you're aiming down the sights automatically whenever standing still. Crosshairs and the basic personal HUD are minimal, mostly reflecting what your character would be able to tell just by feeling (obviously not possible for the player through a computer screen). There is no in-mission healing for anyone. Single shots are often lethal without body armor, and even when they're not, being shot in the legs or arms will hurt speed or accuracy. Kevlar vests only protect against a few pistol rounds or shotgun blasts and are useless against rifles. The player can daze himself with his own flashbangs and stinger grenades. There are no BFGs of any kind, and all the grenades (tear gas, stinger, flashbang) being non-lethal, which fits given that SWAT is a paramilitary police unit, not part of the army. All weapons have a fully realistic portrayal of recoil and their respective drawbacks. In fact, the only thing not portrayed is bullet ricochet. It's possible to customize one's bullet loadout (full metal jacket or jacketed hollow-point, etc.), and there's a focus on non-lethally neutralizing and apprehending criminals, rather that killing them outright. You're also punished for not following SWAT procedures, so if you shoot a perp without first ordering him to comply, points are docked for use of unauthorized deadly force. There are no saves at all, during any mission. The less-lethal flash bang and stinger grenade actually can injure or kill if detonated within close proximity to a person, as can repeated hits from a taser, especially if the non-compliant suspect is old or on drugs.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_dd9f5b61	comment	Entry Point (Roblox): Cover is emphasized. Until March 16, 2021, the option to use a reticle was not available, meaning that to aim accurately, one must aim down the sights or use a laser sight. A stamina bar prevents you from running all the time, even with upgrades, which is emphasized on Shadow War in which the stamina bar is heavily reduced. A maximum of a Choice of Two Weapons is allowed, though two primaries can be considered. One Bullet Clips is played straight even though there are unique animations for reloading an unloaded gun. Ammunition is scarce even with upgrades, though this is made up for the fact that most enemies can be easily killed with a few bullets (and in the Shadow War gamemode, even with armor, a well placed headshot can easily kill most Operatives). With perks, it's possible to run and shoot at the same time. Guns Akimbo is possible, though it works as much as you expect in real life: Impractical. Probably due to the lack of high floors, there is no fall damage. Enemies will prioritize either the heavily armored unit or a shield unit to protect their less armored targets. Armor is essential for blocking out bullets, with light armor being good against handguns and tougher armor, such as the Aegis armor, give enough protection to withstand enough bullets from assault rifles at the expense of speed, and also not great against explosives. Even shotguns are portrayed realistically here, as they are still capable of scoring kills beyond a distance. There's also no health regeneration, but this is mostly negated by the fact that you can still pretty much stand up after suffering a huge amount of bullets and then use a medkit to pretty come back in well-shape. Rarely there are bosses, and the ones faced are massive gunships which take a tremendous amount of bullets to take down and a supersoldier who can pretty much tank a direct explosion. There are bags which allow for carrying various equipment such as medkits and keycards, and also other types of bags used to carry bodies and important objects. During stealth, Freelancers can eliminate guards, and can also knock out them to prevent ruining their uniforms which allows them to take their clothing and be disguised as them, though it's still possible to get detected if facing a person directly and certain disguises will cause you to still look suspicious if they openly carry a firearm out, and if a guard was eliminated just as he's contacting a radio operator, the Freelancers must try to finish the call with them, but only up to two calls, and certain maps feature guards as reinforcements.

It averts One Bullet Clips by making you manually put each bullet in; you carry all clips, empty or full with you at all times; you must either remember or check the amount of bullets you have left; you can point your gun and aim anywhere on the screen; the flying robots that you fight realistically react to where you shoot them; and you play as a One-Hit-Point Wonder.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_e9cb2780	comment	Gears of War: Uses Regenerating Health, but includes a cover system that popularized the concept. Characters are also capable of rolling around as much as they want, potentially lengthening firefights, but averts Critical Existence Failure by putting characters into a weakened mode after taking enough damage (if not outright killed). However, characters can take a fair amount of damage before that happens, automatic weaponry usually taking around 3-5 seconds to cause that.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_ea11b11e	comment	Ghost Recon: The original games have you die in one or two shots, and squad tactics are emphasized. The later Advanced Warfighter games rank lower, but are still Nintendo Hard (at least, the PC versions are — the consoles are much like their newer counterparts) and also have the option of playing on the original difficulty — that is, die in one shot.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_ef215943	comment	PAYDAY: The Heist: Players can only carry 3 weapons at a time. Weapons have to be manually reloaded since they don't reload automatically when the weapon is fully empty. Ammo drops from the cops give paltry amounts of ammo so the player is encouraged to make headshots to save on bullets. Incapacitated players can use their sidearm to defend themselves, but being shot up during this state will completely disable the player. The player can sprint, but they won't be able to shoot or reload while sprinting. Every weapon's sights can be used for better accuracy while shooting, but this will make you move slower. Interacting with tools and ammo/health bags require time to use and the health and ammo bags have a limited volume; this means that it is possible for you to run out of ammo for all your weapons, leaving you with a weak melee attack. Your armor regenerates, but your health is static, so the only way to recover health is to either use a medic bag, level up, or be revived (each revival starts you with lower and lower health) when you go down. Fall damage penetrates your armor and damages your health. The cops are quite smart as they will generally try to flank you from all possible sides and will generally send out multiple special units to end you as quickly as possible. Cops will also let the SWAT Shield go first so his shield can deflect your bullets while they follow behind him for protection. Cops will also use lots and lots of smoke grenades to blind you while they rush in to flank you. The sequel, PAYDAY 2, leans more toward Semi-Classic while remaining somewhat realistic like its predecessor. Players can only carry two firearms and one melee weapon, but a combination of a minigun and rocket launcher is no more encumbering than that of an assault rifle and pistol. Various skills allow the player to do decidedly less realistic actions, such as surviving fatal shots for six extra seconds and gaining Bottomless Magazines for the duration, or healing incapacitated teammates with an inspiring shout. Health is static by default, but some skills and perk decks allow passive healing over time, either through waiting or by dealing damage to enemies. Loot is now carried in duffel bags, and different types of loot have different weights, which affects player movement speed and throw distance. During stealth, players can eliminate guards, but have to spend time fooling the pager operator to prevent the alarm from being raised afterward, and the body must usually be moved to prevent other guards from noticing it. The pager operator will also get suspicious after too many guards are eliminated, and some maps have guard reinforcements arrive to check the situation.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_f02c93ca	comment	Project Reality is a mod for Battlefield 2 in which the realism is taken up a notch. There is little more than a compass for a HUD, all guns kick like a mule, and weapon reloads are painfully slow. Squad is the Spiritual Successor to the Project Reality mod using a new engine, and retains all of the original's realism.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_f4eb07ee	comment	The Source Mod Insurgency: Modern Combat and its commercial release/sequel Insurgency. It features fully realistic firearms, as in all the firearms have a maximum range of several hundred meters. The main limiting factor is whether the player can even see the enemy, which is hard a lot of the time due to the long ranges (outdoors) and extremes of light (indoors), as well as all the smoke and sand everywhere. You can't see your ammo or health, and you have two methods of aiming: looking down the sights (which you will do most of the time), and firing from the hip, where your guy freely waves the gun around rather than holding it in one position. Special weapons such as shotguns (which are effective at much longer distances than in most games), grenade launchers, smoke grenades, laser sights, and M4 assault rifles are only given to certain classes. Sniper scopes are also 3D scopes, only magnifying the contents inside the scope instead of just zooming in the entire view. Cover is very important, staying in the open will invariably get you shot. The best tactic is suppressive fire most of the time, and occasionally using grenades for flushing out enemies. Damage varies depending on range. The fully armored US soldiers can take only a few shots before dying. When shot, you'll flinch and the screen will temporarily turn red, and even near misses blur the screen to simulate suppression. Day of Infamy also sits right here due to having mostly the same gunplay mechanics, just in a WWII setting. The 2018 sequel Insurgency: Sandstorm adds bullet drop at extreme ranges.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_f9e57af5	comment	America's Army: Being injured, walking, or holding your gun at the shoulder (rather than aiming by the scope) drastically decreases accuracy. The gun cannot be fired if the player sprints. Being shot twice in the foot puts a player near death, to say nothing of being shot in the torso or head. Health cannot be recovered, and blood loss can only be slowed by lying down, applying a one-time-only bandage, or being treated by a combat medic. Spare ammunition doesn't transfer from magazine to magazine, but each one instead holds exactly how many it holds. Shots can ricochet, but only rarely. Grenades and sniper rifles are king.

Fackler Scale of FPS Realism / int_fd8ef85e	comment	Left 4 Dead: Two weapons only, and one of them is always a pistol or (in the sequel) a melee weapon. Weapons can shoot through walls slightly and can penetrate multiple targets. Has friendly fire on Normal and above, and getting a shotgun blast from a fellow Survivor is an insta-teamkill on Expert. Using medkits for a permanent heal takes a while, during which time the user cannot move or shoot, while pills offer only a temporary boost that slowly runs down. Survivors fire, move and reload slower the more injured they are. An update also made it impossible to continuously melee, as using their guns as clubs gradually wears out the survivors. The mounted minigun has a windup time and can only cover a limited field of fire, but can overheat (ridiculously quickly at that) despite being a minigun. The shotguns reload one shell at a time, requiring the first shell to be chambered before firing after a reload from empty in the first game. No rocket launchers, and grenade launchers only appear in the sequel (and are very rare). On the other hand, pistols serve as an unlimited-ammo Emergency Weapon, and they can be dual-wielded without loss in accuracy. The minigun has unlimited ammunition too. There are stocks of infinitely-usable ammo around. The hunting rifle can be used well without needing the scope, and guns suffer little accuracy penalty when shot on the move. The other guns also use One Bullet Clips. Survivors can take loads of damage on most difficulties except the highest ones, despite not wearing any visible protection. Oh, and there are zombies with numbers of hundreds per level and sometimes even over a thousand.

You could still take a couple dozen SMG hits before dying, although healing items are somewhat common and enemies with automatic weapons and good aim can cut you down pretty quickly on harder difficulties.
